2021-10-31 - From the December 1970 issue of THE DIAPASON: "A new organ designed and built by the church's organist was dedicated Oct. 11 at St. John's Lutheran Church, Syracuse, N.Y. Due to the fact that funds were limited, Mr. James Flood searched for used pipes throughout the U.S., and pipes from the old instrument along with used pipes were revoiced and regulated. New mixtures were purchased. The organ is placed in the rear balcony with the new copper state trumpet placed on the right side in front of the positiv. The lowest twelve pipes of the zinc 8-ft. principal are placed on the left in front of the great. The console is in the center in front of the swell. The swell is placed in two chambers, one above the other, and each is controlled by separate expression pedals. The console has a completely transistorized internal-combination-action system. Mr. Flood played a morning dedication recital and an afternoon concert to begin a program of musical events that will extend throughout the season." -Jeff Scofield
2021-10-31 - Merged in 1979 with the Church of the Resurrection to form St. Stephen Lutheran Church, using the Resurrection facilities. -Jeff Scofield
